Robin Sieger's Column

THE MOST IMPORTANT DAY IN YOUR LIFE


I want you to imagine that today is your birthday, and today you have been given a magic golden envelope.

You have been told that the envelope contains two essential, personal pieces of information. The first will tell you what the most important day in your life will be, and the second will tell you who the most important person in your life will be.

Wouldn’t life be wonderfully simple if you were able to live it like that? You would watch the calendar waiting for the important day to come along and waiting for the important person to walk into our life.

But all of you DO have this magic golden envelope. You have always had it and you are able to open it every day.

I have come to realize (as I am sure many others have) that the most important day in your life is TODAY and the most important person in your life YOU.

Today is the only day you have and it is the only time when you can effect change. You must take that opportunity every day you have it. You are the most important person in your life. Every action you take affects you and the people around you. You have a responsibility to act in a way which benefits yourself, your family, your friends, your colleagues, and the world at large.

The most important day in your life is today and the most important time is now. For all the simplicity that implies, very few people believe it. They think the most important day will be in the future -- when they get married, when they become parents, when they make a million, when they win the lottery, when they discover a cure for cancer, or when they win the Nobel prize.

There is nothing wrong with anticipating good things that may happen in the future, but you have to live in the present.

Today, the most important day in your life.

When you choose to live in the moment and take actions to create a better future, you open the door to endless possibilities.

The future is created in the here and now.
And this moment is the only moment!
Don’t waste it!
